Paperback. Zustand: New. The Busybody is the most popular comedy by the eighteenth-century playwright Susanna Centlivre. The play centres on two couples trying to form a relationship against the wills of their guardians, and in a battle of wits, playing with many conventions from theatre traditions across the continent, a conclu…sion is eventually reached.Like her predecessor Aphra Behn, Centlivre was immensely successful in her day, drawing huge crowds to extended runs of her numerous plays, but the stabbing male pens of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries decried her work as being louche and dangerous, and her name slowly sunk into obscurity.This edition, published with William Hazlitt's prefatory note and extra material on Centlivre's life and writing, seeks to highlight the dexterity with which she took on the stage.

Soft cover. Zustand: Good. Clean, tight, unmarked; a few pages had corner turned; some comments in margins in ink on a few pages; This is perhaps the finest example of Centlivre's masterful plotting of comic intrigue. The soldier Fainwell and Anne Lovely are in love, but their path to the altar is blocked by her guardians, each…of whom has a different view of what sort of husband would make the right match. Fainwell resorts to disguises tailored to suit each of the guardians, who together form a gallery of social types. The play thus provides a wide range of opportunity for Centlivre to satirize Tory respectability, religious propriety and capitalist speculative greed - and to give voice to her won strongly Whig views, emphasising cooperation and tolerance: 'Tis liberty of choice that sweetens life.' Yet in the end it is Centlivre's comic muse that give enduring life to the play as one of the most entertaining of 18th century comedies.
